Charles Ruiz
I was born and raised in the City & County of San Francisco, Calif. where I spent most of my life. We lived in 3 different parts of the city, 18th & Castro, Bosworth St. and St. Mary's Park. I attended John F. Kennedy Memorial / St. John's Elementary from 1968 to 1976 and Riordan H.S. from 1977 - 1980. I went on and graduated with a high GPA of 2.8 and had a perfect attendance record in my final year. Was a member of the track & field team, where I posted my personal best in Shot Putt. I was ready to attend Westminster College in Salt Lake City, Utah, but choose College of San Mateo instead where I studied Business Administration and other courses. Didn't quite have a major, so I left after 2 years. During the strike shortened baseball season of 1981, I was one of many athletes invited for a tryout with the San Francisco Giants. Though my running wasn't that great, I did excel at 3rd base. It was a once in a lifetime to be on a major league diamond. Since then, I have held many positions in the corporate world.
